The State Pollution Control Board (PCB) has served notices on over 50 polluting units located close to Chitrapuzha and Kadambrayar. The process of serving notices began in March, and follow-up action, including issue of show-cause notices and closure, if required, will be taken on the basis of the response of the said units. The polluting sources include apartments, industrial units, service stations, hospitals, hotels, and restaurants, according to senior board officials here. The action is part of steps being taken for the rejuvenation of Chitrapuzha and Kadambrayar, which figure among the 21 critically-polluted water stretches identified by the Central Pollution Control Board in the State.More Related News
